BiographyAlison Bailey is an Associate Professor and Director of the Women’s and Gender Studies Program. Her research addresses issues at the intersections of feminist theory, moral and political philosophy, philosophy of race/whiteness studies, and epistemology. Concerns for social justice drive her selection of philosophical problems, which she then works through by appealing to "real life" examples taken from narratives, social science research, and public policy. She recently co-edited a special issue of Hypatia on "The Reproduction of Whiteness: Race and the Regulation of the Gendered Body," with Jacquelyn N. Zita (2007). Her work on philosophical issues related to racism and resistance has appeared in Hypatia, Whiteness: Feminist Philosophical Perspectives, Feminist Ethics Revisited, Race and Epistemologies of Ignorance, The Journal of Peace and Justice Studies, and The Center Must Not Hold. She and Chris Cuomo recently co-edited The Feminist Philosophy Reader (McGraw Hill, 2008). Her current research interests address questions of race in feminist bioethics, and philosophical responses to intersectionality. | |
